Part of the Multiple and Complex Needs Initiative (MACNI) Evaluation, the
Review reports publish findings from the Review of Client Status Post
Termination from the Initiatives, Five Years of MACN Panel, and Regional
Gateway Report. The cumulative data covers the period from August 2004, when
MACNI became operational, to the end of June 2009. The report also describes
trends for the current period covering 2008-09. The Multiple and Complex
Needs Initiative (MACNI) is a time-limited specialist service for those 16
years and older identified as having multiple and complex needs, including
those with combinations of mental illness, substance abuse issues,
intellectual impairment, acquired brain injury and forensic issues. Often
these individuals pose a risk to themselves and to the community.
